10、B. so long as只要；C. though虽然； D. as soon as一就。根据语境，对方同意降价的条件是你一下子买10个以上，as/so long as意为只要，引导条件状语从句，符合题意。故选B项。【点睛】解状语从句，主要依据的是句子间的逻辑关系，去判断属于什么类型的状语从句，是条件还是原因，亦或是时间还是方式等，然后选择相应的引导词。例如本题，根据上下文语境，买方是看对方可否降价，卖方提出条件：只要你一下子买10个以上。由此我们可以判断这里是表示条件，引导条件状语从句的选项有even if 和so long as，但是因为even if表示即使，不符合题意，故选B项。17.
